Walk in the Rain, KDE3.3, late night Buffy and skate stuff.

Walk in the Rain
I grabed my umbrella and headed out for my walk yesterday. The remnents of Hurricane Jeneane, i think it is, were entering the area. First stop was the Credit union so I could deposit a meager 40 bucks so I could partially pay the trash bill. The guy ahead of me was checking his balances...among his other accounts he had $6000 in savings.. :o(

I stoped at the car to grab my English book to read. I remembered also that I was not going to be at class this Saturday because of G's birthday :o) So I left the book behind and started off. I thought I would try to play Space Trader on my PDA. The rain was a bit much and it was getting on the screen so I decided to just walk and think. I started to plan out my project for my Non-western Soc class. It will be in web format and be about the amount of oil left in the world...hmmm, i should ask the teacher if that is enough on topic. I should have wrote right after I walked because i worked out a couple other things while doing my 4 laps and now i forget them. At one point it really started to come down, it was pretty cool.

More Linux and KDE3.3
I started getting Karamba configured last night...I converted some icons from gray to green and changed the format from .svg to .png. I am downloading KDE3.3 today and will install that tonight or tomorrow depending how long the coven stuff takes tonight. I also make my linux partition bigger. i'd love to wipe both drives and repartition them..but I just wait till i get a bigger hard drive.

Late night with Buffy
Heeeerrrrrrsss...BUFFY!.

Again Sarah woke up at 12 as I was getting ready to go to bed and wanted to watch buffy. We watched two and then i went to bed at two. she must have watched two more as she was up till four!

Skate Stuff
I stoped by the park again today before skating. It looks to be done, unfortunatly. I am no skatepark designer but it looks like they left out a ramp. As you go into the park, about the size of a tennis court, to your left going away from you there is a quarter pipe. That Pipe leads to a spine. On the other side of the spine is another QP that hips to a mini-ramp. Off of the other hip is a bank that heads to a big fund box. this is where the problem is. there should be another bank or QP on the other side of the FunBox so that you can keep moving. Oh well it will be fun to learn going over the hip. Its something we never had back in the day.

I came across this web page today. Fix the Fountains at Balboa Park in San Diego. They are trying to get the skate industry to put up some money to pay for damamge to a fountain, yhea right. There is an area to send out a spam message in support of getting money from the companies. i used the spot to push for the government to take action and get free public skateparks.

Lots of Rain
Whew, we got a ton of rain last night. i think I made it down some roads that were probably closed down not to long after i went down them due to flooding.
